Gen­eral Data Pro­cessing

Scope and Per­mis­sion for Pro­cessing Per­sonal Data

We col­lect and use per­sonal data of our users primar­ily only to the extent neces­sary for provid­ing the func­tion­al­ity of our web­site as well as our con­tent and ser­vices. The col­lec­tion and use of per­sonal data of our users gen­er­ally occurs only with the user’s con­sent.

An excep­tion applies in cases where obtain­ing prior con­sent is not pos­sible for fac­tual reas­ons, and the pro­cessing of the data is per­mit­ted by legal reg­u­la­tions.

The legal basis for the pro­cessing of per­sonal data after obtain­ing the con­sent of the data sub­ject is Art­icle 6(1)(a) of the GDPR. For the pro­cessing of per­sonal data neces­sary for the per­form­ance of a con­tract or for the exe­cu­tion of pre-con­trac­tual meas­ures, the legal basis is Art­icle 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. When pro­cessing per­sonal data to ful­fill a legal oblig­a­tion, the legal basis is Art­icle 6(1)© of the GDPR. In cases where the pro­cessing of per­sonal data is neces­sary to pro­tect vital interests of the data sub­ject or another nat­ural per­son, Art­icle 6(1)(d) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis. If the pro­cessing is neces­sary to pro­tect a legit­im­ate interest of our com­pany or a third party, and these interests out­weigh the interests of the data sub­ject, tak­ing into account the fun­da­mental rights and freedoms of the data sub­ject, Art­icle 6(1)(f) of the GDPR is the legal basis for pro­cessing the data.

Data Dele­tion and Reten­tion Period

Per­sonal data of the data sub­ject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the pur­pose of stor­age no longer applies. How­ever, data may be stored if this is required by a legal pro­vi­sion for the pro­cessing of the data. In this case, the data will be blocked or deleted once the leg­ally pre­scribed reten­tion period expires, unless there is a neces­sity for fur­ther stor­age of the data for the con­clu­sion or ful­fill­ment of a con­tract.

Data Pro­cessing Through the Use of Our Web­site

Visit to Our Web­site

When you access our web­site, inform­a­tion is auto­mat­ic­ally sent to the server of our web­site by the browser used on your device. This inform­a­tion is tem­por­ar­ily stored in a so-called Log file. The fol­low­ing inform­a­tion is col­lec­ted without your inter­ven­tion and stored until auto­mated dele­tion. These include: IP address of the request­ing com­puter, date, and time of access, name, and URL of the retrieved file, web­site from which access is made (Refer­rer-URL), browser used, and, if applic­able, the oper­at­ing sys­tem of your com­puter as well as the name of your access pro­vider.

The afore­men­tioned data is pro­cessed by us for the pur­poses of ensur­ing a smooth con­nec­tion to the web­site, ensur­ing a com­fort­able use of our web­site, eval­u­at­ing sys­tem secur­ity and sta­bil­ity, as well as for other admin­is­trat­ive pur­poses.

The legal basis for data pro­cessing is Art­icle 6(1) sen­tence 1 lit. f of the GDPR. Our legit­im­ate interest arises from the pur­poses lis­ted above for data col­lec­tion. In no case do we use the col­lec­ted data to draw con­clu­sions about your per­son.

Use of online Shop Func­tions

We pro­cess our cus­tom­ers’ data as part of the order­ing pro­cess in our online shop to enable them to select and order the chosen products and ser­vices, as well as to facil­it­ate their pay­ment, deliv­ery, and/or exe­cu­tion.

The pro­cessed data includes mas­ter data, com­mu­nic­a­tion data, con­tract data, pay­ment data, and the indi­vidu­als affected by the pro­cessing include our cus­tom­ers, pro­spects, and other busi­ness part­ners. The pro­cessing is car­ried out for the pur­pose of provid­ing con­trac­tual ser­vices as part of the oper­a­tion of an online shop, billing, deliv­ery, and cus­tomer ser­vice. In this con­text, we use ses­sion cook­ies to store the shop­ping cart con­tents and per­sist­ent cook­ies to store the login status.

The pro­cessing is car­ried out based on Art­icle 6(1)(b) (per­form­ance of order­ing pro­cesses) and © (leg­ally required archiv­ing) of the GDPR. The inform­a­tion marked as required is neces­sary for the estab­lish­ment and ful­fill­ment of the con­tract. We dis­close the data to third parties only within the scope of deliv­ery, pay­ment, or in accord­ance with legal per­mis­sions and oblig­a­tions to legal advisors and author­it­ies. Data will only be pro­cessed in third coun­tries if this is neces­sary for the ful­fill­ment of the con­tract (e.g., at the customer’s request for deliv­ery or pay­ment).

Users can option­ally cre­ate a user account, through which they can view their orders, among other things. Dur­ing the regis­tra­tion pro­cess, the required man­dat­ory fields are provided to the users. User accounts are not pub­lic and can­not be indexed by search engines. If users can­cel their user account, their data related to the user account will be deleted, unless its reten­tion is required for com­mer­cial or tax reas­ons in accord­ance with Art­icle 6(1)© of the GDPR. Inform­a­tion in the cus­tomer account remains until its dele­tion, fol­lowed by archiv­ing in the event of a legal oblig­a­tion. It is the users’ respons­ib­il­ity to back up their data before the con­tract ends, in case of can­cel­la­tion.

As part of the regis­tra­tion pro­cess, re-logins, and the use of our online ser­vices, we store the IP address and the time of each user action. The stor­age is based on our legit­im­ate interests, as well as the user’s interest in pro­tec­tion against mis­use and other unau­thor­ized use. These data are gen­er­ally not dis­closed to third parties, unless it is neces­sary to assert our claims or there is a legal oblig­a­tion to do so accord­ing to Art­icle 6(1)© of the GDPR.

The dele­tion takes place after the expir­a­tion of stat­utory war­ranty and sim­ilar oblig­a­tions. The neces­sity of retain­ing the data is reviewed every three years; in the case of legal archiv­ing oblig­a­tions, dele­tion occurs after their expir­a­tion (end of com­mer­cial (6 years) and tax (10 years) reten­tion oblig­a­tions).

Use of Our Con­tact Form

Our web­site includes a con­tact form that can be used for elec­tronic com­mu­nic­a­tion. The plu­gin used for this is called WPForms and is imple­men­ted in com­pli­ance with the GDPR. If a user takes advant­age of this option, the data entered into the con­tact form, as well as the IP address, date, and time, are trans­mit­ted to us and stored. Your con­sent is obtained dur­ing the sub­mis­sion pro­cess for the pro­cessing of the data, and ref­er­ence is made to this pri­vacy policy. The legal basis for data pro­cessing in this case is Art­icle 6(1)(a) of the GDPR.

Altern­at­ively, con­tact can be made via the provided email address. In this case, the per­sonal data of the user trans­mit­ted with the email will be stored. No data is shared with third parties in this con­text. The legal basis for pro­cessing this data is Art­icle 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. If the email con­tact aims at con­clud­ing a con­tract, the addi­tional legal basis for pro­cessing is Art­icle 6(1)(b) of the GDPR.

The data pro­cessing for the pur­pose of con­tact­ing us is car­ried out in accord­ance with Art­icle 6(1) sen­tence 1 lit. a of the GDPR based on your vol­un­tar­ily given con­sent. The per­sonal data col­lec­ted by us for the use of the con­tact form will be auto­mat­ic­ally deleted after your request has been pro­cessed.

Regis­tra­tion

You have the option to register on our web­site or in our app by provid­ing per­sonal data. The per­sonal data trans­mit­ted to us is determ­ined by the respect­ive input form used for regis­tra­tion. The per­sonal data you enter will be pro­cessed exclus­ively for internal use for our own pur­poses. We may instruct the trans­fer of data to one or more pro­cessors who will also use your per­sonal data exclus­ively for internal pur­poses that are attrib­ut­able to us.

In addi­tion, the IP address assigned to the data sub­ject by the inter­net ser­vice pro­vider (ISP), as well as the date and time of regis­tra­tion, are stored. The stor­age of this data is neces­sary in order to pre­vent the mis­use of our ser­vices, and in case of need, to help cla­rify any com­mit­ted crim­inal offenses. There­fore, the stor­age of this data is neces­sary for secur­ity pur­poses. This data will gen­er­ally not be dis­closed to third parties unless there is a legal oblig­a­tion to do so or the dis­clos­ure serves law enforce­ment.

Your regis­tra­tion, with the vol­un­tary pro­vi­sion of per­sonal data, is inten­ded to offer you con­tent or ser­vices that, due to their nature, can only be made avail­able to registered users. Registered indi­vidu­als have the option to modify the per­sonal data provided dur­ing regis­tra­tion at any time or to have it com­pletely deleted from our data­base.

We provide each data sub­ject with inform­a­tion upon request at any time regard­ing which per­sonal data about the data sub­ject is stored. Fur­ther­more, we will cor­rect or delete per­sonal data upon the request or notice of the data sub­ject, as long as there are no legal reten­tion oblig­a­tions pre­vent­ing this.

News­let­ter

We offer you the oppor­tun­ity to sub­scribe to our news­let­ter on our web­site. With this news­let­ter, we provide reg­u­lar updates about our offers. To receive our news­let­ter, you need a valid email address. The email address you provide will be veri­fied to ensure that you are indeed the owner of the provided email address or that the owner of the email address has author­ized the receipt of the news­let­ter.

By sub­scrib­ing to our news­let­ter, we will store your IP address, along with the date and time of your sub­scrip­tion. This is to pro­tect us in case a third party mis­uses your email address and sub­scribes to our news­let­ter without your know­ledge. No fur­ther data will be col­lec­ted by us. The data col­lec­ted in this way will be used exclus­ively for send­ing our news­let­ter. There will be no trans­fer of this data to third parties. Addi­tion­ally, the col­lec­ted data will not be matched with data that may be col­lec­ted through other com­pon­ents of our site. You can unsub­scribe from this news­let­ter at any time. Details on how to do so can be found in the con­firm­a­tion email and in each indi­vidual news­let­ter.

News­let­ter-Track­ing

Our news­let­ters con­tain what’s known as track­ing pixels. A track­ing pixel is a small graphic embed­ded in emails sent in HTML format, enabling log file record­ing and log file ana­lysis. This allows for stat­ist­ical eval­u­ation of the suc­cess or fail­ure of online mar­ket­ing cam­paigns. Through the embed­ded track­ing pixel, we can determ­ine if and when an email was opened by a data sub­ject and which links in the email were clicked by the data sub­ject.

Per­sonal data col­lec­ted through the track­ing pixels in the news­let­ters is stored and ana­lyzed by us to optim­ize the news­let­ter dis­tri­bu­tion and bet­ter tailor the con­tent of future news­let­ters to the interests of the data sub­ject. This per­sonal data is not shared with third parties. Data sub­jects are always entitled to with­draw their sep­ar­ate con­sent, given through the double opt-in pro­cess, at any time. After with­drawal, this per­sonal data will be deleted by the data con­trol­ler. We always con­sider unsub­scrib­ing from our news­let­ter as a with­drawal of con­sent.

Dis­clos­ure of Data

Your per­sonal data will not be trans­ferred to third parties for pur­poses other than those lis­ted below. We will only dis­close your per­sonal data to third parties if you have expli­citly given your con­sent in accord­ance with Art­icle 6(1) sen­tence 1 lit. a of the GDPR, or if it is neces­sary for the ful­fill­ment of con­trac­tual oblig­a­tions, if the dis­clos­ure is required in accord­ance with Art­icle 6(1) sen­tence 1 lit. f of the GDPR for the asser­tion, exer­cise, or defense of legal claims, and there is no reason to believe that you have a pre­dom­in­ant legit­im­ate interest in not dis­clos­ing your data, in the event that a legal oblig­a­tion exists for the dis­clos­ure in accord­ance with Art­icle 6(1) sen­tence 1 lit. c of the GDPR, or if it is leg­ally per­miss­ible and neces­sary for the pro­cessing of con­trac­tual rela­tion­ships with you in accord­ance with Art­icle 6(1) sen­tence 1 lit. b of the GDPR.

Use of Cook­ies

We use cook­ies for the oper­a­tion of our web­site to make it more user-friendly. Some ele­ments of our web­site require that the request­ing browser can be iden­ti­fied even after a page change.

Cook­ies are small files that enable the stor­age of spe­cific device-related inform­a­tion on the user’s access device (PC, smart­phone, etc.). They serve to improve the user-friend­li­ness of web­sites and thus bene­fit the users (e.g., stor­ing login data). Addi­tion­ally, they are used to col­lect stat­ist­ical data on web­site usage and allow for ana­lysis to improve the ser­vice offered. Users can influ­ence the use of cook­ies. Most browsers offer an option to limit or com­pletely pre­vent the stor­age of cook­ies. How­ever, it is import­ant to note that the use of the web­site and, in par­tic­u­lar, the user exper­i­ence may be restric­ted without cook­ies.

The data col­lec­ted in this way from users are pseud­onym­ized through tech­nical meas­ures. As a res­ult, it is no longer pos­sible to asso­ci­ate the data with the request­ing user. The data are not stored together with other per­sonal data of the users.

The legal basis for the pro­cessing of per­sonal data using cook­ies is Art­icle 6(1) lit. f GDPR. The legal basis for the pro­cessing of per­sonal data using tech­nic­ally neces­sary cook­ies is Art­icle 6(1) lit. f GDPR. The legal basis for the pro­cessing of per­sonal data using cook­ies for ana­lyt­ical pur­poses is, if the user has given con­sent, Art­icle 6(1) lit. a GDPR.

The pur­pose of using tech­nic­ally neces­sary cook­ies is to sim­plify the use of web­sites for users. Some func­tions of our web­site can­not be offered without the use of cook­ies. For these, it is neces­sary that the browser is recog­nized even after a page change.

The use of ana­lyt­ical cook­ies is inten­ded to improve the qual­ity of our web­site and its con­tent. Through the ana­lyt­ical cook­ies, we learn how the web­site is used and how we can con­tinu­ously optim­ize our ser­vices.

These pur­poses also con­sti­tute our legit­im­ate interest in pro­cessing per­sonal data accord­ing to Art­icle 6(1) lit. f GDPR.

Third-Party Ser­vices

We have integ­rated con­tent, ser­vices, and offer­ings from other pro­viders on our web­site. Although we strive to use only third-party pro­viders that require the IP address solely to deliver con­tent, we have no con­trol over whether the IP address is stored. This pro­cess is used, among other things, for stat­ist­ical pur­poses. Should we become aware that the IP address is being stored, we will inform our users accord­ingly.

Use and Pur­pose of Google Ana­lyt­ics (with Anonym­iz­a­tion Fea­ture)

The data con­trol­ler has integ­rated the Google Ana­lyt­ics com­pon­ent (with anonym­iz­a­tion func­tion) on this web­site. Google Ana­lyt­ics is a web ana­lyt­ics ser­vice. Web ana­lyt­ics involves the col­lec­tion, gath­er­ing, and eval­u­ation of data regard­ing the beha­vior of vis­it­ors to web­sites. A web ana­lyt­ics ser­vice col­lects data, among other things, about which web­site a data sub­ject came from (so-called refer­rers), which sub­pages of the web­site were accessed, how often, and for how long a sub­page was viewed. Web ana­lyt­ics is primar­ily used for optim­iz­ing a web­site and con­duct­ing a cost-bene­fit ana­lysis of online advert­ising.

The oper­ator com­pany of the Google Ana­lyt­ics com­pon­ent is Google Ire­land Lim­ited, Gor­don House, Bar­row Street, Dub­lin 4, Ire­land.

The data con­trol­ler uses the “_gat._anonymizeIp” add-on for web ana­lysis via Google Ana­lyt­ics. Through this add-on, the IP address of the affected person’s inter­net con­nec­tion is shortened and anonym­ized by Google when access­ing our web­site from a mem­ber state of the European Union or another con­tract­ing state of the Agree­ment on the European Eco­nomic Area.

The pur­pose of the Google Ana­lyt­ics com­pon­ent is to ana­lyze the traffic on our web­site. Google uses the data and inform­a­tion col­lec­ted, among other things, to eval­u­ate the usage of our web­site, to com­pile online reports for us that high­light the activ­it­ies on our web­site, and to provide other ser­vices related to the use of our web­site.

Google Ana­lyt­ics sets a cookie on the inform­a­tion tech­no­logy sys­tem of the affected per­son. The concept of cook­ies has already been explained above. By set­ting the cookie, Google is enabled to ana­lyze the use of our web­site. Each time one of the indi­vidual pages of this web­site, oper­ated by the data con­trol­ler and on which a Google Ana­lyt­ics com­pon­ent has been integ­rated, is accessed, the inter­net browser on the inform­a­tion tech­no­logy sys­tem of the affected per­son is auto­mat­ic­ally promp­ted by the respect­ive Google Ana­lyt­ics com­pon­ent to send data for the pur­pose of online ana­lysis to Google. As part of this tech­nical pro­ced­ure, Google gains know­ledge of per­sonal data, such as the IP address of the affected per­son, which Google uses, among other things, to track the ori­gin of vis­it­ors and clicks, and sub­sequently enable com­mis­sion billing. Through the use of the cookie, per­sonal inform­a­tion, such as the access time, the loc­a­tion from which access occurred, and the fre­quency of vis­its to our web­site by the affected per­son, is stored. Each time our web­site is vis­ited, this per­sonal data, includ­ing the IP address of the inter­net con­nec­tion used by the affected per­son, is trans­mit­ted to Google in the United States of Amer­ica. This per­sonal data is stored by Google in the United States of Amer­ica. Google may share these per­sonal data col­lec­ted through the tech­nical pro­ced­ure with third parties.

The data sub­ject can pre­vent the set­ting of cook­ies by our web­site at any time by adjust­ing the set­tings of the browser being used, thereby per­man­ently object­ing to the set­ting of cook­ies. Such a set­ting of the browser would also pre­vent Google from set­ting a cookie on the data subject’s inform­a­tion tech­no­logy sys­tem. Fur­ther­more, any cookie already set by Google Ana­lyt­ics can be deleted at any time via the inter­net browser or other soft­ware pro­grams.

Fur­ther­more, the data sub­ject has the option to object to the col­lec­tion of data gen­er­ated by Google Ana­lyt­ics related to the use of this web­site, as well as the pro­cessing of this data by Google, and to pre­vent such data col­lec­tion. To do this, the data sub­ject must down­load and install a browser add-on via the link https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. This browser add-on informs Google Ana­lyt­ics via JavaS­cript that no data and inform­a­tion regard­ing vis­its to web­sites may be trans­mit­ted to Google Ana­lyt­ics. The install­a­tion of the browser add-on will be con­sidered by Google as an objec­tion. If the data subject’s IT sys­tem is deleted, format­ted, or rein­stalled at a later time, the data sub­ject must rein­stall the browser add-on to dis­able Google Ana­lyt­ics. If the browser add-on is unin­stalled or deac­tiv­ated by the data sub­ject or another per­son within their con­trol, the add-on can be rein­stalled or react­iv­ated.

We also use the remarket­ing or “Sim­ilar Audi­ences” func­tion of Google Ads on our web­site. This fea­ture allows us to present tar­geted, interest-based advert­ise­ments to vis­it­ors of our web­site when they browse other web­sites within the Google Dis­play Net­work. To achieve this, user inter­ac­tions on our web­site are ana­lyzed, such as which offers the user showed interest in. This enables us to dis­play rel­ev­ant advert­ise­ments to users on other web­sites as well.

Google uses cook­ies for this pur­pose, which allow for an ana­lysis of user beha­vior on our web­site. These cook­ies enable Google to recog­nize when a user has vis­ited our web­site and sub­sequently accesses other sites within the Google Dis­play Net­work. Accord­ing to Google, no per­sonal data is stored in this pro­cess. If you do not wish to use the remarket­ing func­tion, you can dis­able it at any time by adjust­ing the set­tings at: https://adssettings.google.com

Altern­at­ively, you can deac­tiv­ate the use of cook­ies for interest-based advert­ising via the advert­ising net­work ini­ti­at­ive by fol­low­ing the instruc­tions at http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp.

You can find more inform­a­tion about Google Remarket­ing and Google’s pri­vacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.

Fur­ther inform­a­tion and the applic­able pri­vacy policies of Google can be accessed at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html. Google Ana­lyt­ics is explained in more detail at this link: https://www.google.com/intl/de_de/analytics/.

Use and Pur­pose of Google AdWords

The data con­trol­ler has integ­rated Google AdWords on this web­site. Google AdWords is an online advert­ising ser­vice that allows advert­isers to place ads both in Google’s search engine res­ults and within the Google advert­ising net­work. Google AdWords enables advert­isers to define spe­cific keywords in advance, ensur­ing that an ad appears in Google’s search res­ults only when a user retrieves a keyword-rel­ev­ant search res­ult. In the Google advert­ising net­work, ads are dis­trib­uted across topic-rel­ev­ant web­sites using an auto­mated algorithm that takes the pre­defined keywords into account.

The oper­at­ing com­pany of Google AdWords ser­vices is Google Ire­land Lim­ited, Gor­don House, Bar­row Street, Dub­lin 4, Ire­land.

The pur­pose of Google AdWords is to pro­mote our web­site by dis­play­ing interest-based advert­ise­ments on third-party web­sites and in the search engine res­ults of Google, as well as dis­play­ing third-party advert­ise­ments on our web­site.

If a data sub­ject reaches our web­site via a Google ad, Google places a so-called con­ver­sion cookie on the data subject’s IT sys­tem. What cook­ies are has already been explained above. A con­ver­sion cookie expires after thirty days and is not used to identify the data sub­ject. As long as the cookie has not expired, it tracks whether cer­tain subpages—such as the shop­ping cart of an online store—have been accessed on our web­site. The con­ver­sion cookie allows both us and Google to determ­ine whether a data sub­ject who arrived at our web­site via an AdWords ad has com­pleted a trans­ac­tion, such as mak­ing a pur­chase or abandon­ing it.

The data and inform­a­tion col­lec­ted through the use of the con­ver­sion cookie are used by Google to gen­er­ate vis­itor stat­ist­ics for our web­site. We, in turn, use these vis­itor stat­ist­ics to determ­ine the total num­ber of users who were referred to us via AdWords ads, allow­ing us to assess the suc­cess or fail­ure of each AdWords ad and to optim­ize our AdWords cam­paigns for the future. Neither our com­pany nor other Google AdWords advert­isers receive any inform­a­tion from Google that could identify the data sub­ject.

The con­ver­sion cookie stores per­sonal inform­a­tion, such as the web pages vis­ited by the data sub­ject. With each visit to our web­site, per­sonal data, includ­ing the IP address of the inter­net con­nec­tion used by the data sub­ject, is trans­mit­ted to Google in the United States of Amer­ica. These per­sonal data are stored by Google in the United States. Google may share these per­sonal data col­lec­ted through this tech­nical pro­cess with third parties.

The data sub­ject can pre­vent cook­ies from being set by our web­site at any time, as pre­vi­ously described, by adjust­ing the set­tings of the inter­net browser used and thus per­man­ently object­ing to the set­ting of cook­ies. Such a set­ting in the inter­net browser would also pre­vent Google from pla­cing a con­ver­sion cookie on the data subject’s IT sys­tem. Addi­tion­ally, a cookie already set by Google AdWords can be deleted at any time via the inter­net browser or other soft­ware pro­grams.

Fur­ther­more, the data sub­ject has the option to object to interest-based advert­ising by Google. To do so, the data sub­ject must access the link www.google.de/settings/ads from the respect­ive inter­net browser they use and adjust the desired set­tings there.

Fur­ther inform­a­tion and the applic­able pri­vacy policies of Google can be accessed at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.

Use of Google Tag Man­ager

We have integ­rated Google Tag Man­ager on our web­site. With Google Tag Man­ager, mar­keters can man­age web­site tags via a user inter­face. How­ever, the Tag Man­ager itself, which deploys the tags, works without cook­ies and does not col­lect any per­sonal data. The Tag Man­ager merely trig­gers other tags, which in turn may col­lect data. Rel­ev­ant explan­a­tions for these third-party pro­viders can be found in this pri­vacy policy. How­ever, Google Tag Man­ager does not use this data. If you have set or oth­er­wise made adjust­ments to dis­able cook­ies, these set­tings will be respec­ted for all track­ing tags deployed using Google Tag Man­ager. The tool does not alter your cookie set­tings.

Google may ask for your per­mis­sion to share some product data (e.g., your account inform­a­tion) with other Google products to enable cer­tain fea­tures, such as sim­pli­fy­ing the addi­tion of new con­ver­sion track­ing tags for AdWords. Addi­tion­ally, Google developers peri­od­ic­ally review product usage inform­a­tion to fur­ther optim­ize the product. How­ever, Google will never share this type of data with other Google products without your con­sent.

Fur­ther inform­a­tion can be found in Google’s terms of use at https://www.google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/use-policy.html and in Google’s pri­vacy notice for this product at https://www.alphabet.com/de-de/datenschutzrechtlicher-hinweis.

Use and Pur­pose of You­Tube

We have integ­rated com­pon­ents of You­Tube on our web­site. You­Tube is an online video plat­form that allows video pub­lish­ers to post video clips and other users to view, rate, and com­ment on these videos for free. You­Tube allows the pub­lic­a­tion of all types of videos, which means that not only full-length movies and TV shows but also music videos, trail­ers, or user-gen­er­ated videos can be accessed through the inter­net plat­form.

The oper­at­ing com­pany of You­Tube is You­Tube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. You­Tube, LLC is a sub­si­di­ary of Google Inc., 1600 Amphi­theatre Park­way, Moun­tain View, CA 94043–1351, USA.

With every visit to one of the indi­vidual pages on this web­site, oper­ated by the data con­trol­ler, where a You­Tube com­pon­ent (You­Tube video) has been integ­rated, the inter­net browser on the affected person’s device is auto­mat­ic­ally promp­ted by the respect­ive You­Tube com­pon­ent to down­load a dis­play of the cor­res­pond­ing You­Tube com­pon­ent from You­Tube. Fur­ther inform­a­tion about You­Tube can be found at https://www.youtube.com/yt/about/de/. As part of this tech­nical pro­ced­ure, You­Tube and Google become aware of which spe­cific page on our web­site the affected per­son is vis­it­ing.

If the affected per­son is sim­ul­tan­eously logged into You­Tube, You­Tube will recog­nize which spe­cific page on our web­site the affected per­son is vis­it­ing when they access a page con­tain­ing a You­Tube video. This inform­a­tion is col­lec­ted by You­Tube and Google and is assigned to the respect­ive You­Tube account of the affected per­son.

You­Tube and Google receive inform­a­tion that the affected per­son has vis­ited our web­site whenever the affected per­son is logged into You­Tube at the time of access­ing our web­site, regard­less of whether the affected per­son clicks on a You­Tube video or not. If the affected per­son does not wish for such inform­a­tion to be trans­mit­ted to You­Tube and Google, they can pre­vent the trans­mis­sion by log­ging out of their You­Tube account before access­ing our web­site.

The pri­vacy policy pub­lished by You­Tube, which can be accessed at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/, provides inform­a­tion on the col­lec­tion, pro­cessing, and use of per­sonal data by You­Tube and Google.

Use and Pur­pose of Hub­Spot

To man­age our cus­tomer and pro­spect data, we use the CRM sys­tem of the pro­vider Hub­Spot, Inc. (25 First Street, Cam­bridge, MA 02141 USA).

A CRM sys­tem, or Cus­tomer Rela­tion­ship Man­age­ment sys­tem, as the name sug­gests, is a sys­tem that allows us to man­age the rela­tion­ship and inter­ac­tion with our (poten­tial) cus­tom­ers. In this sys­tem, con­tact details, offers, agree­ments, and the plan­ning of fur­ther com­mu­nic­a­tion are stored. Dur­ing the first con­tact with us, we store your con­tact inform­a­tion and any inform­a­tion obtained from that con­ver­sa­tion in Hub­Spot. If the con­tact between us and you is con­tin­ued, we also store all inform­a­tion that we need for a poten­tial col­lab­or­a­tion with you. This allows us to always track what agree­ments we have made, when our last con­tact with you was, and which of our offers you are inter­ested in. Given the volume of our cus­tom­ers and inquir­ies, this approach is neces­sary. How­ever, only employ­ees who are respons­ible for hand­ling or imple­ment­ing your inquir­ies or ful­filling con­tracts with you have access to your data.

The legal basis for stor­ing data in our CRM sys­tem is Art­icle 6(1)(b) GDPR (per­form­ance of a con­tract or tak­ing pre-con­trac­tual steps) in con­junc­tion with Art­icle 6(1)© GDPR (com­pli­ance with legal oblig­a­tions).

In sum­mary, the fol­low­ing data may be col­lec­ted, stored, and pro­cessed by Hub­Spot:

Con­tact details (com­pany, name, email, phone num­ber, con­tact per­son, depart­ment)

Offer con­tents

Inquir­ies and cor­res­pond­ence

Since Hub­Spot is a U.S.-based com­pany and some of HubSpot’s data cen­ters are loc­ated out­side the EU, it may occur that the data you provide (or parts of it) will be stored out­side the EU. We have a con­tract with Hub­Spot that incor­por­ates the so-called EU Stand­ard Con­trac­tual Clauses, mak­ing the data trans­fer to Hub­Spot leg­ally per­miss­ible. The afore­men­tioned per­sonal data will be kept as long as neces­sary for the pur­pose of pro­cessing. The data will be deleted once they are no longer needed to achieve the pur­pose or if you request dele­tion. The right to delete your data may be sus­pen­ded if we need the data due to a legal oblig­a­tion or other over­rid­ing legit­im­ate interest (e.g., for defense of legal claims). You can find inform­a­tion about data pro­tec­tion at Hub­Spot here: https://legal.hubspot.com/de/privacy-policy.

If we com­mu­nic­ate with you via email, the neces­sary data for that pur­pose must of course also be pro­cessed in our email pro­gram. Addi­tion­ally, our email pro­gram is integ­rated with Hub­Spot, so all con­tact data stored in Hub­Spot can also be accessed through our email soft­ware.

The legal basis for the pro­cessing of data with our email pro­gram are:

Art­icle 6(1)(b) GDPR, inso­far as the email cor­res­pond­ence takes place for the ini­ti­ation, exe­cu­tion, or ter­min­a­tion of a con­trac­tual rela­tion­ship.

Art­icle 6(1)(a) GDPR, when send­ing news­let­ters or reques­ted advert­ising from you.

Art­icle 6(1)(f) GDPR, when send­ing email advert­ising, for example, in con­nec­tion with a pre­vi­ous pur­chase or con­tract with the data sub­ject.

Zoom

We use Zoom to con­duct con­fer­ence calls, online meet­ings, video con­fer­ences, and/or webinars (here­in­after: “Online Meet­ings”). Zoom is a ser­vice provided by Zoom Video Com­mu­nic­a­tions, Inc., which is based in the USA. Vari­ous types of data are pro­cessed when using Zoom. The scope of the data also depends on what inform­a­tion you provide before or dur­ing par­ti­cip­a­tion in an “Online Meet­ing.” The fol­low­ing per­sonal data are sub­ject to pro­cessing:

User Inform­a­tion

First name, last name, phone num­ber (optional), email address, pass­word (if “Single Sign-On” is not used), pro­file pic­ture (optional), depart­ment (optional)

Meet­ing Metadata

Topic, descrip­tion (optional), par­ti­cipant IP addresses, device/hardware inform­a­tion

For record­ings (optional)

MP4 file of all video, audio and present­a­tion record­ings, M4A file of all audio record­ings, text file of the online meet­ing chat.

When dial­ling in by tele­phone

Inform­a­tion on the incom­ing and out­go­ing call num­ber, coun­try name, start, and end time. If neces­sary, fur­ther con­nec­tion data such as the IP address of the device can be saved.

Text, audio, and video data

You may have the option of using the chat, ques­tion, or sur­vey func­tions in an “online meet­ing”. In this respect, the text entries you make are pro­cessed in order to dis­play them in the “online meet­ing” and, if neces­sary, to log them. In order to enable the dis­play of video and the play­back of audio, the data from the micro­phone of your end device and from any video cam­era of the end device will be pro­cessed accord­ingly for the dur­a­tion of the meet­ing. You can switch off or mute the cam­era or micro­phone your­self at any time via the Zoom applic­a­tions.

To take part in an “online meet­ing” or to enter the “meet­ing room”, you must at least provide inform­a­tion about your name.

If we want to record “online meet­ings”, we will inform you trans­par­ently in advance and — if neces­sary, ask for your con­sent. The fact of the record­ing will also be dis­played in the Zoom app.

If it is neces­sary for the pur­poses of log­ging the res­ults of an online meet­ing, we will log the chat con­tent. How­ever, this will not usu­ally be the case.

In the case of webinars, we may also pro­cess the ques­tions asked by webinar par­ti­cipants for the pur­poses of record­ing and fol­low­ing up webinars.

If you are registered as a user at Zoom, reports on “online meet­ings” (meet­ing metadata, tele­phone dial­ling data, ques­tions and answers in webinars, sur­vey func­tion in webinars) can be stored at Zoom for up to one month.

Per­sonal data that is pro­cessed in con­nec­tion with par­ti­cip­a­tion in “online meet­ings” is gen­er­ally not passed on to third parties unless it is inten­ded to be passed on. Please note that con­tent from “online meet­ings”, as with face-to-face meet­ings, is often used to com­mu­nic­ate inform­a­tion with cus­tom­ers, inter­ested parties or third parties and is there­fore inten­ded to be passed on.

Other recip­i­ents

The pro­vider of Zoom neces­sar­ily obtains know­ledge of the above-men­tioned data inso­far as this is provided for in our order pro­cessing con­tract with Zoom.

Zoom is a ser­vice provided by a pro­vider from the USA. Per­sonal data is there­fore also pro­cessed in a third coun­try. We have con­cluded an order pro­cessing agree­ment with the pro­vider of Zoom that meets the require­ments of Art. 28 GDPR.

An appro­pri­ate level of data pro­tec­tion is guar­an­teed on the one hand by the con­clu­sion of the so-called EU stand­ard con­trac­tual clauses. As addi­tional pro­tect­ive meas­ures, we have also con­figured Zoom in such a way that only data cen­ters in the EU, the EEA or secure third coun­tries such as Canada or Japan are used to con­duct “online meet­ings”.

Legal basis of the pro­cessing

Inso­far as per­sonal data of employ­ees of Seller­ate UG & Co. KG, § 26 BDSG is the legal basis for data pro­cessing. If, in con­nec­tion with the use of Zoom, per­sonal data is not required for the estab­lish­ment, imple­ment­a­tion, or ter­min­a­tion of the employ­ment rela­tion­ship, but is nev­er­the­less an ele­ment­ary com­pon­ent of the use of Zoom, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR is the legal basis for data pro­cessing. In these cases, our interest lies in the effect­ive organ­iz­a­tion of “online meet­ings”.

Oth­er­wise, the legal basis for data pro­cessing when con­duct­ing “online meet­ings” is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR, inso­far as the meet­ings are con­duc­ted within the frame­work of con­trac­tual rela­tion­ships.

If there is no con­trac­tual rela­tion­ship, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Here too, we are inter­ested in the effect­ive organ­iz­a­tion of “online meet­ings”.

Calendly

In order to offer our vis­it­ors the oppor­tun­ity to book appoint­ments with our con­sult­ants quickly and eas­ily, we use “Calendly” from “Calendly LLC”. Calendly is a cloud applic­a­tion that offers the plan­ning of meet­ings as a ser­vice. By link­ing to the con­sult­ants’ cal­en­dars, vis­it­ors can eas­ily select and book a free appoint­ment. In order for the book­ing to be con­firmed and kept free for the user, the user’s name and email address are trans­mit­ted to Calendly and for­war­ded from there to the con­sult­ants’ cal­en­dars. You can find out more about data pro­tec­tion at Calendly here https://help.calendly.com/hc/de/articles/360007295834-Datenspeicherung-und-Datenschutz.

The legal basis for this pro­cessing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legit­im­ate interest is to sim­plify schedul­ing and organ­iz­a­tion for our con­sult­ants and our vis­it­ors.

Use and pur­pose of n8n.io

We use the integ­ra­tion ser­vice pro­vider n8n.io. N8n is a ser­vice provided by n8n GmbH, Bor­sig­str. 27, 10115 Ber­lin. For more inform­a­tion about n8n and how it works, please visit https://n8n.io.

We use n8n to link vari­ous ser­vices and applic­a­tions with each other and to cre­ate auto­mated pro­cesses. N8n pro­cesses data that you enter via our web­site. This can be, for example, your name, your e‑mail address or other inform­a­tion that you provide to us.

Data pro­cessing by n8n takes place on our own serv­ers or on the serv­ers of third-party pro­viders with whom we work.

We have con­cluded an order pro­cessing agree­ment (AVV) for the use of the above-men­tioned ser­vice. This is a con­tract pre­scribed by data pro­tec­tion law, which ensures that the ser­vice pro­vider pro­cesses the per­sonal data of our web­site vis­it­ors only in accord­ance with our instruc­tions and in com­pli­ance with the GDPR.

Use and pur­pose of Google Work­space

As part of our busi­ness oper­a­tions, we use Google Work­space for e‑mail com­mu­nic­a­tion, file stor­age and video con­fer­en­cing, among other things. The ser­vice pro­vider is the Amer­ican com­pany Google Inc. For the European region, the com­pany Google Ire­land Lim­ited (Gor­don House, Bar­row Street Dub­lin 4, Ire­land) is respons­ible for all Google ser­vices.

All data that you provide to us in the con­text of con­tact­ing us or in the con­text of a video con­fer­ence, as well as your e‑mail and IP address and other data required for send­ing and receiv­ing e‑mails, are stored on Google’s serv­ers in the European Eco­nomic Area.

The legal basis for this data pro­cessing is the ful­fill­ment of a con­tract or the per­form­ance of pre-con­trac­tual meas­ures in accord­ance with Art. 6 para. 1 sen­tence 1 lit. b) GDPR, or our legit­im­ate interest in the smooth internal pro­cessing of our busi­ness oper­a­tions in accord­ance with Art. 6 para. 1 sen­tence 1 lit. f) GDPR.

Google con­firms that Google Work­space can be used in com­pli­ance with the GDPR. In the con­tracts, Google under­takes to com­ply with the GDPR with regard to the pro­cessing of cus­tom­ers’ per­sonal data in all Google Cloud Plat­form and Google Work­space ser­vices. It should be noted that if other ser­vices such as You­Tube are accessed via Google Work­space, Google’s gen­eral terms of use and data pro­tec­tion pro­vi­sions apply again. Google also pro­cesses your data in the USA, among other places. It can there­fore not be com­pletely ruled out that per­sonal data will be trans­ferred to the USA or that US secur­ity author­it­ies will gain access to it.

Google is an act­ive par­ti­cipant in the EU-US Data Pri­vacy Frame­work, which reg­u­lates the cor­rect and secure trans­fer of per­sonal data from EU cit­izens to the USA. You can find more inform­a­tion on this at https://commission.europa.eu/document/fa09cbad-dd7d-4684-ae60-be03fcb0fddf_en

Google uses so-called stand­ard con­trac­tual clauses in accord­ance with Art. 46 (2) and (3) GDPR. Stand­ard Con­trac­tual Clauses (SCCs) are tem­plates provided by the EU Com­mis­sion and are inten­ded to ensure that your data com­plies with European data pro­tec­tion stand­ards even if it is trans­ferred to third coun­tries (such as the USA) and stored there. Through the EU-US Data Pri­vacy Frame­work and the stand­ard con­trac­tual clauses, Google under­takes to com­ply with the European level of data pro­tec­tion when pro­cessing your rel­ev­ant data, even if the data is stored, pro­cessed and man­aged in the USA.

For this pur­pose, we have con­cluded an order pro­cessing agree­ment with Google Ire­land Lim­ited, Gor­don House, Bar­row Street, Dub­lin 4, incor­por­at­ing the cur­rent stand­ard con­trac­tual clauses of the EU Com­mis­sion (EU SCC). The pro­cessing of per­sonal data exclus­ively within the EU has been con­trac­tu­ally agreed.

Inform­a­tion on the IT secur­ity of Google Work­space can be found at https://workspace.google.com/intl/de/security/ for fur­ther details.

Cooper­a­tion with pro­cessors, joint con­trol­lers and third parties

If we dis­close data to other per­sons and com­pan­ies (pro­cessors, joint con­trol­lers or third parties) as part of our pro­cessing, trans­fer it to them or oth­er­wise grant them access to the data, this is only done on the basis of legal per­mis­sion (e.g., if the trans­fer of data to third parties, such as pay­ment ser­vice pro­viders, is neces­sary to ful­fil a con­tract), users have con­sen­ted, a legal oblig­a­tion provides for this or on the basis of our legit­im­ate interests (e.g. when using agents, web hosts, etc.).

If we dis­close, trans­fer or oth­er­wise grant access to data to other com­pan­ies in our group of com­pan­ies, this is done in par­tic­u­lar for admin­is­trat­ive pur­poses as a legit­im­ate interest and, in addi­tion, on a basis cor­res­pond­ing to the legal require­ments.

Trans­fers to third coun­tries

If we pro­cess data in a third coun­try (i.e., out­side the European Union (EU) and the European Eco­nomic Area (EEA)) or if the pro­cessing takes place in the con­text of the use of third-party ser­vices or the dis­clos­ure or trans­fer of data to other per­sons, bod­ies or com­pan­ies, this is done exclus­ively in accord­ance with the stat­utory pro­vi­sions.

Sub­ject to express con­sent or trans­fer required by con­tract or law, we only pro­cess data in third coun­tries with a recog­nized level of data pro­tec­tion. This is done on the basis of con­trac­tual oblig­a­tions through so-called stand­ard pro­tec­tion clauses of the EU Com­mis­sion, in the pres­ence of cer­ti­fic­a­tions or bind­ing internal data pro­tec­tion reg­u­la­tions (Art. 44 to 49 GDPR, inform­a­tion page of the EU Com­mis­sion: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection_de).

Data pro­tec­tion for applic­a­tions and in the applic­a­tion pro­cess

We col­lect and pro­cess the per­sonal data of applic­ants for the pur­pose of hand­ling the applic­a­tion pro­cess. Pro­cessing may also be car­ried out elec­tron­ic­ally. This is par­tic­u­larly the case if an applic­ant sub­mits the rel­ev­ant applic­a­tion doc­u­ments to us elec­tron­ic­ally, for example by e‑mail or via a web form on the web­site. If we con­clude an employ­ment con­tract with an applic­ant, the data trans­mit­ted will be stored for the pur­pose of pro­cessing the employ­ment rela­tion­ship in com­pli­ance with the stat­utory pro­vi­sions. If we do not con­clude an employ­ment con­tract with the applic­ant, the applic­a­tion doc­u­ments will be auto­mat­ic­ally deleted two months after noti­fic­a­tion of the rejec­tion decision, provided that no other legit­im­ate interests on our part stand in the way of dele­tion. An other legit­im­ate interest in this sense is, for example, a bur­den of proof in pro­ceed­ings under the Gen­eral Equal Treat­ment Act (AGG).

Rights of the data sub­ject

You have the right:

(1) to request inform­a­tion about your per­sonal data pro­cessed by us in accord­ance with Art. 15 GDPR. In par­tic­u­lar, you can request inform­a­tion about the pro­cessing pur­poses, the cat­egory of per­sonal data, the cat­egor­ies of recip­i­ents to whom your data has been or will be dis­closed, the planned stor­age period, the exist­ence of a right to rec­ti­fic­a­tion, eras­ure, restric­tion of pro­cessing or objec­tion, the exist­ence of a right to lodge a com­plaint, the ori­gin of your data if it was not col­lec­ted by us, and the exist­ence of auto­mated decision-mak­ing includ­ing pro­fil­ing and, if applic­able, mean­ing­ful inform­a­tion about its details;

(2) in accord­ance with Art. 16 GDPR, to demand the imme­di­ate cor­rec­tion of incor­rect or incom­plete per­sonal data stored by us;

(3) to request the eras­ure of your per­sonal data stored by us in accord­ance with Art. 17 GDPR, unless the pro­cessing is neces­sary for exer­cising the right of free­dom of expres­sion and inform­a­tion, for com­pli­ance with a legal oblig­a­tion, for reas­ons of pub­lic interest or for the estab­lish­ment, exer­cise, or defense of legal claims;

(4) in accord­ance with Art. 18 GDPR, to demand the restric­tion of the pro­cessing of your per­sonal data if the accur­acy of the data is dis­puted by you, the pro­cessing is unlaw­ful, but you refuse to delete it, and we no longer need the data, but you need it for the asser­tion, exer­cise, or defense of legal claims, or you have lodged an objec­tion to the pro­cessing in accord­ance with Art. 21 GDPR;

(5) in accord­ance with Art. 20 GDPR, to receive your per­sonal data that you have provided to us in a struc­tured, com­monly used and machine-read­able format or to request that it be trans­ferred to another con­trol­ler;

(6) in accord­ance with Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR to with­draw your con­sent once given to us at any time. The con­sequence of this is that we may no longer con­tinue the data pro­cessing that was based on this con­sent in the future and,

(7) to lodge a com­plaint with a super­vis­ory author­ity in accord­ance with Art. 77 GDPR. As a rule, you can con­tact the super­vis­ory author­ity at your usual place of res­id­ence or work­place or at the registered office of our law firm.

Right of objec­tion

You have the right to object, on grounds relat­ing to your par­tic­u­lar situ­ation, at any time to pro­cessing of per­sonal data con­cern­ing you which is based on point (e) or (f) of Art­icle 6(1) GDPR, includ­ing pro­fil­ing based on those pro­vi­sions.

The con­trol­ler will no longer pro­cess the per­sonal data con­cern­ing you unless the con­trol­ler demon­strates com­pel­ling legit­im­ate grounds for the pro­cessing which over­ride your interests, rights, and freedoms or for the estab­lish­ment, exer­cise, or defense of legal claims.

If your per­sonal data is pro­cessed for dir­ect mar­ket­ing pur­poses, you have the right to object at any time to the pro­cessing of your per­sonal data for such mar­ket­ing, which includes pro­fil­ing to the extent that it is related to such dir­ect mar­ket­ing.

If you object to pro­cessing for dir­ect mar­ket­ing pur­poses, the per­sonal data con­cern­ing you will no longer be pro­cessed for these pur­poses.

Not­with­stand­ing Dir­ect­ive 2002/58/EC, you have the option of exer­cising your right to object in con­nec­tion with the use of inform­a­tion soci­ety ser­vices by means of auto­mated pro­ced­ures that use tech­nical spe­cific­a­tions.

Auto­mated decision-mak­ing in indi­vidual cases includ­ing pro­fil­ing

You have the right not to be sub­ject to a decision based solely on auto­mated pro­cessing, includ­ing pro­fil­ing, which pro­duces legal effects con­cern­ing you or sim­il­arly sig­ni­fic­antly affects you. This does not apply if the decision:

(1) is neces­sary for the con­clu­sion or ful­fill­ment of a con­tract between you and the con­trol­ler,

(2) is author­ized by Union or Mem­ber State law to which the con­trol­ler is sub­ject and which also lays down suit­able meas­ures to safe­guard your rights and freedoms and legit­im­ate interests; or

(3) with your express con­sent.

How­ever, these decisions may not be based on spe­cial cat­egor­ies of per­sonal data pur­su­ant to Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR, unless Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a or g applies and appro­pri­ate meas­ures have been taken to pro­tect the rights and freedoms as well as your legit­im­ate interests.

In the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the data con­trol­ler shall imple­ment suit­able meas­ures to safe­guard your rights and freedoms and legit­im­ate interests, at least the right to obtain human inter­ven­tion on the part of the con­trol­ler, to express your point of view and to con­test the decision.

As a respons­ible com­pany, we do not use auto­mated decision-mak­ing or pro­fil­ing.

Data secur­ity

We use the wide­spread SSL (Secure Socket Layer) method in con­junc­tion with the highest level of encryp­tion sup­por­ted by your browser when you visit our web­site. As a rule, this is 256-bit encryp­tion. If your browser does not sup­port 256-bit encryp­tion, we use 128-bit v3 tech­no­logy instead. You can recog­nize whether an indi­vidual page of our web­site is trans­mit­ted in encryp­ted form by the closed dis­play of the key or lock sym­bol in the lower status bar of your browser.

We also use suit­able tech­nical and organ­iz­a­tional secur­ity meas­ures to pro­tect your data against acci­dental or inten­tional manip­u­la­tion, par­tial or com­plete loss, destruc­tion or unau­thor­ized access by third parties. Our secur­ity meas­ures are con­tinu­ously improved in line with tech­no­lo­gical devel­op­ments.

Up-to-date­ness and amend­ment of this pri­vacy policy

This pri­vacy policy is cur­rently valid and is dated 30 August 2024.

Due to the fur­ther devel­op­ment of our web­site and offers on it or due to changed legal or offi­cial require­ments, it may become neces­sary to change this pri­vacy policy. You can access and print out the cur­rent pri­vacy policy at any time at this address.
